Congratulations on the test ride MG!!! Good review there. Especially since ur a 220 Fi owner, makes a lot of sense. Next time, atleast carry a camera phone Mr. Super Mod!!!

Somehow this ad does not impress me so much. It just is not in the level of the Pulsar mania or 220Fi or 200's or Avenger ads!!! Kinda did not showcase the 220's prowess a lot!

P.S: So which is ur next bike going to be MG?

I really like the bajaj ad these days... more of creativity than stunts ! at the end it says fastest indian !! but it would have been gr8 if they had indian background rather than takn shots in mexico or whereva it is !! doest make sense a mexican drivn the fastest indian

[Durvesh]

i guess max 35 kmpl

varun pbk guy's say the new 220 44kmpl

Am watching Ten Sports just to catch a glimpse of the TV Ad.. (imagine watching a TV channel just to watch an TV AD )

Don't believe whatever they say.. from my personal experiences I can say that one should be happy of one gets 35-40 kmpl under normal riding conditions.

Just saw the Fastest Indian P220 ad. Well IMHO, its good for a one time watch, but this is definitely not in the league of the usual Bajaj ad's. The Adrenaline punch is missing in it!

@MG: Nice report there! I might be getting my hands on a Ditsy too tomorrow if I can find the time, will update a comparo report if possible!

i guess the "F" turns out to be the most queried "feature" of the new 220.

anyways, my query is, since the marketing blurbs all say that the suspension is stiffer, aiding in much better handling, can someone pls. clarify if it is harder than that of the P180UG4 ?? or can it at least be set to as soft as the P180UG4 ? because, i suspect, with many people wanting to go for it for "cruiser duty", a soft setup would be much appreciated.

also can the fairing be removed ??

^^ any answers please ??
